This brushed yarn is made in a mill in Southern Peru, home of the alpaca. Cirro is a sport weight yarn combing lustruous Suri Alpaca with Merino Wool, and then wrapping this fluffy fibre around an organic cotton thread to make it light and airy and perfectly balanced for body and drape. It creates a soft halo fabric that is very light and lovely next to the skin.
